或许当初不要那麽固执，
那麽任性。
或许当初应该接受大姐(damien)等人的冷嘲热讽，
应该有自知自明。
或许现在我就不会进退两难。。。

或许当初应该坚持自己的立场。
或许。。。

今天我看到 miss foo!
有一种说不出来的感觉涌上心头。
是一种搀杂着开心又难过。

我们是隔着玻璃窗的。
我很兴奋地和她打招呼。
她给了我几个飞吻。
还不断的比着加油的手势，
为我的会考打气。
我真想抱着她大哭。

和她道别后，
眼泪在眼眶里不断的打滚着。
一直在想，
我该放声大哭吗？
最后我还是决定不然任何人看到我的另一面。

我，
真的很想哭。
我已经不知道还有谁能让我倾诉了。

很多时候我发觉我老是徘徊在回忆中。
我不愿踏出那个框框，
也不让任何新的人进入我的世界。
一有机会和旧朋友在一起，
我一定不放过。
可是，
我发现，
仿佛只有我一个人是如此。
大家好像都已经向前走了。
只有我，
在原地踏步，
不想离开两年前。
我还是很希望时间在两年前早就停止了。

两年一眨眼就过去了。
人也变了。
一直在想念着过去，
但，
却永远也回不到过去了。

我很不开心。
或许是潜意识堆积着压力吧。

我只想快点结束这一切，
能否进大学已不是我的目标了。
我只想。。。
找回快乐。
应该是这样吧？
